I would think so, you'll have the receipt with the full amount, so they'll have to give it you back.

Even more of a bargain!

Gutted though as daughter managed to get me some from the Asda she works at, so I only got 2 tins for £7![:(]

Never mind.

I've almost finished my Christmas shopping - I did most of it in M & S as they had loads of lovely Christmas things 3 for 2. I've ordered Harry a personalised cat bowl (painted to look like him!) and all I've got left to get is Dave's present - I haven't got a clue what to get him!
